Field officers of Pakistan Cotton Standards Institute (PSCI) have appealed to prime minister to promote them in next scales because they were recruited between 1983 and 1991 in Grade 16 but in spite of serving for 19 to 26 years they are still in Grade 16 and they are getting their salaries quarterly while the Government is bound to provide salaries and fringe benefits every month.
In a petition to Prime Minister, the field officers said PSCI is an autonomous body under the administrative control of Ministry of Textile Industry, which was constituted for enhancing the quality and standard of cotton as cotton plays a significant role in the country's economy and is main source of foreign exchange. They said that the quality improvement of raw cotton is the prerequisite in attaining the ultimate financial earnings from the regional preface and the international market.
